HomeKit/ Philips hue bridge not syncing I cannot get my home kit & hue bridge to talk to each other. All I get when I enter the connection code on the bottom of the bridge is that it’s an incorrect code, and when I try to connect from the bridge via the button, it won’t find my HomeKit. I have tried reinstalling everything , have checked that both are on the same network.

Hue Bridge disconnected and won’t reconnect to Apple Home I’ve used the Philips Hue system for about 3 or 4 years and have never had a problem with it. I even moved and set it up at the new place and it worked just fine. However, within the last 2 or 3 days, the Hue Bridge disconnected from Home and won’t reconnect. I’ve confirmed that everything is updated/running the latest software, restarted everything several times but the Bridge won’t reconnect. I can control everything thru the Hue app but not thru Siri or the Home app. Any help would be appreciated.

Is it set up? Look in the Hue App in Settings- Smart .home - Apple HomeKit - Settings -Sync Setup to Apple Home.
Look in your device - search “home” to find HomeKit and check Hue is enabled.
